「我離港前到過一間精神科醫院。當時有位病人禮貌地問,一個以作為世上最悠久民主政體而自傲的國家,如何能夠將此地交給一個政治制度非常不同的國家,且既沒諮詢當地公民,又沒給予他們民主的前景,好讓他們捍衞自己的將來。一個隨行同事說,奇怪,香港提出最理智問題的人,竟在精神科醫院。」彭定康 金融時報

“During a visit to a mental hospital before I left Hong Kong, a patient politely asked me how a country that prided itself on being the oldest democracy in the world had come to be handing over his city to another country with a very different system of government, without either consulting the citizens or giving them the prospect of democracy to safeguard their future. Strange, said one of my aides, that the man with the sanest question in Hong Kong is in a mental hospital.”Chris Patten Financial Times

Coming Soon 影話 continue...




另一部電影 caught my eyes 是戴安基頓 Diane Keaton, 的“Because I Said So ”。 上次戴安基頓在 Something's Gotta Give 搭上了奇諾李維斯Keanu Reeves !!! WOW﹐雖然最後回到積尼高遜Jack Nicholson身邊﹐但戴安和奇諾的一段忘年戀好好玩。今次Diane KeatonMandy Moore,做兩母女﹐看看有冇火花!!



Starring:

Diane Keaton,

Mandy Moore,



Directed by: Michael Lehmann




故事的英文簡介是:
Daphne Wilder is a mother whose love knows no bounds or boundaries. As a single parent, she has raised three fantastic girls--klutzy, adorable Milly, stable psychologist Maggie and sexy and irreverent Mae--to become the kind of women any mom would die to have.



The only problem is they're about to strangle her. In order to prevent her youngest, Milly, from making the same romantic mistakes she did, Daphne decides to set her up with the perfect man. The one thing Daphne decides not to tell Milly, however, is that she placed an ad in the online personals to find him.



If anyone knows exactly what her daughter does and doesn't need out of a long-term relationship (or clothes or her career), it's Daphne. Comic mayhem unfolds as the well-intended mom continues to do the wrong thing for the right reasons--all in the name of love for her beloved daughter. Is the man of Daphne's (er, um--Milly's) dreams the responsible architect Jason, or is he the free-spirited rocker Johnny?



Daphne will continue to push, cajole, suggest and nudge her way into Milly's smallest of decisions until she rights the wrongs of her own life choices or drives her girl nuts. But once Johnny's own father, Joe, catches a buried spark within Daphne, things really start to heat up for the Wilder matriarch. Finally letting herself begin to fall, Daphne begins to wonder if she is just pushing her girls as a way of ignoring her own issues.







應該是一部純女人戲﹐四個女的﹐單親母親 Diane Keaton 要把最小的女兒Mandy Moore,嫁出去﹐以為結婚是女人的最終幸福﹐不想女兒重蹈自己的覆轍﹐出到上網尋女婿呢一招。有一點像小津安二郎的電影﹐都是父親或母親把女兒嫁給好的男子﹐祈求讓她得到幸福。

最後是母女二人﹐同時找到父子二人﹐大團圓結局!!!


渴望早日在港上映﹐因為戴安基頓演出生猛﹐雖然有時過火一點﹐但大體而言﹐熱熱鬧鬧﹐笑笑笑一場。

我同阿媽一齊睇Somethings Gotta Give,笑到暈低,Diane Keaton好勁呀,非常有型!本來我只係因為有Jack Nicholson先睇,後來先知Diane既戲更加搶,之前只係對佢係The First Wives Club有印象。

Diane Keaton has also performed very well in "The Family Stone". She's the type of mother/character that you (the audience) really hate at the beginning but would melt at the end when you see her. The story/movie itself wasn't that great, as I don't like SJP much, but Diane Keaton is worth to see!
